4-H And Auto Safety
■A comparatively new 4-JJ project is the automotive program. It contributes to highway safety coast'td coast. In the program American teen-agers leant right from wrong behind the wheel. Both teen-age drivel's and pre-drivers can enroll in the project. They work with authoritative manuals, check mechanical defects, safety hazards and keep the vehicle clean. The program, which we consider a good one, shows young people how and why the family car or truck performs as it does.
The End Os Summer
With the passing of Labor Day summer is unofficially over and the fall season is here. Schools all over the nation Tiave opened their doors for the millions of children who are hungry for education. Colleges and universities are starting to open and many are off for a higher education. With the new way of life comes football with both pro and college games to be seen on week end television viewing. A new football program here in Kosciusko county is the junior hifch teams being formed in the area schools. Football fans from all over the area have donated to the corporation’s fund to help with the pur-
Indiana's Industrial Growth Skyrocketing Since Jan. 1
Indiana's industrial growth rate has skyrocketed since the first of the year with 65 new plants or expansions. 27 of which reported a total of 10.615 expected new jobs, according to a state Department of Commerce Research Division sixmonth tabulation, Lieutenant Governor Robert L. Rock announced. Twenty-six of the 66 industries show a 'total of $104,765,000 spent in construction with an average $4,029.420 per project Four additional reported multi-million-dollar expansions but did not list exact amounts. Leading the list of industries which quoted construction totals are. The Dana Corporation (Saiisburg Division 1 . Fort Wayne, which produces front and rear driving axles. $30,000,000; Mead Johnson and Co., Evansville pharmaceutical house. $30,000,000. and Radio Corporation of America. Indianapolis, producer of sound equipment. $14,000.000. Although RCA's expansion was the smallest of the three in dollars and cents, it is probably the largest in new employment with 5.500 additional jobs opening in Indianapolis. •The entire state will benefit from the additional prosperity,'’ Lieutenant Governor Rock stated. •'Besides the increased tax revenues derived, each new industry, large or small, raises employment and population and brings more business to existing firms. The list of expansions shows a strong trend toward diversification with a wide variety of products listed in the six-month report. There will be jobs for workers in production of food products, electrical and industrial machinery, musical instruments. automotive equipment. plastics, clothing, paper, books, pharmaceuticals and many other manufactured items. "So far, we believe 1966 to be the greatest year for industrial growth Indiana has ever known." the Lieutenant Governor said. "If the current growth rate continues. Indiana will probably obtain more than the 325.000 new* jobs statisticians say will be needed in the next 10 years,” he concluded. Two From Area Win Horae And Pony Awards "Two from this area won awards in the 4-H horse and pony show held August 29 at the state fair.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, IN6
In today's heavy traffic a good driver mtlst know more than how to steer a car and the rules of the road. He watches the dashlxiard in front of him and can readily tell when something is wrong. He also keeps his car in good condition. Girls are as interested in this program as boys, this is good. A recent report from the National l-H Senice Committee shows the girls claim their share of honor in county, state and national competition. We think the program is an excellent one for both boys and girls—drivel's and pre-drivers.
chase of equipment to get the new program off on the right foot. Another thing that changes in the fall is the television programs. No more reruns’ All of the major networks have planned new programs for the opening of the new season and some will even show sneak previews this week or next. Golf clubs will soon be put away, but the sportsman isn’t left with nothing to do as the bowling leagues have already started on their winter schedule. Those “Lazy, Hazy, Crazy days of summer” are gone and a new way of life is here but it brings with it joys of its own.

SESQUICENTENNIAL W SCRAPBOOK By J. M. Guthrie ASSISTANT DIRECTOR ■x : Indiana Sosquicentenmal Commission
George Rogers Clark
A newspaper, The Kentucky Re- I porter, carried the following article ( in its February 25, 1818, issue: ( ‘"How are the minify fallen. At < the shrine of grief we must once more offer up our sad devotion! It j becomes our painful duty to record j the death of the father of the west- ( ern country, the illustrious General j George Rogers Clark. He expired ( at his residence, at Locust Grove, j on Friday the 13th instant, in the . 66th year of his age. , “Could our feeble talents enable < us to delineate the distinguished acts of patriotism, of valor and- j the existence of this illustrious , chief, what a spectacle would we | present to the admiring world. I ( “While banqueting in the sun- • shine of wealth and political glory, 1 ( can we be unmindful that there arc ! , the proud trophies bequeathed us by ; ' the toils and valor of tins illustrious man? I ( “Early in life he embarked ia , the cause of his country. This west- j ern country was the great theatre ( of his actions. Bold and enterprising, he was not to be dismayed by : the dangers and difficulties that ; threatened him, by a force in numbers far his superior, and re-: moved to a region never before! trodden by a civilized American. “He estimated the value of its : favorable result; he relied on his I skill and courage; he knew the fi- ! delity of his little band of associates I and for him it was enough. “With this little band of Spartans | he is seen piercing the gloom of i the sequestered forests, illuminat-| ing them in quick succession with the splendor of his victories, and l early inviting his countrymen to a ! residence his courage and skill had | purchased for them. The fall of Kaskaskio, Cahokia, Vincennes, etc., will ever remain a monument, of his skill and courage. “The exalted standing he enjoyed lin the estimation of the citizens of I this town (Louisville) was realized j in the grief they displayed on hear-' ing of his death, and the exertions they made to honor the recollection I of this distinguished man.” Os his funeral the paper stated: “The Reverend Mr. Banks officiated in his professional capacity by j offering up an appropriate prayer io the throne of grace, and was succeeded by the Hon. John Rowan, 1 in a pathetic and impressive eulogy l , on the character of the ever-mem-crable hero. “The peal of artillery announced the commencement of the procession which was to escort the remains of this renowned warrior to 1 his last abode. Minute guns were fired during the cermony, and until the mound of earth was raised upon that form which was once the shield of his country and the terror of her foes.” On February 15, 1818, General ' Clark was buried in a private : graveyard at Locust Grove, then a 1 ‘few miles above Louiisvill’e”.

for over half a century until some civic minded citizens of Louisville decided to remove it to a more suitable place. Uns proved a difficult task as there were many unmarked graves in the private burial ground and eigf.t others were opened before the remains of General Clark were uncovered. His grave was recognized by the finding of Military buttons, a skelton with a missing left leg (it has been amputated in 1808) and some reddish-gray hair. In October 1869 the body was reinterred in Cave Hill cemetery, without benefit of ceremony and there it rests today, alongside some other members of his family. His marker simply states, “General George Rogers Clark, Bom O. S. November 9, 1752. Died February 13, 1818.” There is nothing about his grave or in Cave Hill cemetery to indicate that this is the last resting place of the man, who as a 26 year ok! Lt. Col. of Virginia, won Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and a part of Minnesota for the United States. And then in the face of impossible odds and tribulations protected the entire western frontier of his country’ for several years during and after the American Revolution. [ Clark died a pauper, tenderly cared for by his sLter, neglected all of his life by both the state of Virginia and the government of the •United States. Both were too picayune to either pay his salary or ' reimburse him for the expenditure of his personal ’ wealth during Iris J fighting career. UNEMPLOYMENT CLAIMS DECRE.XSED AGAIN I With nearly all plant-wide shutdowns for vacation, inventory and model change completed, unemployment insurance claims decreased again last week and dropped to the lowest weekly figure since late June. | Lewis F. Nicolini, director of *he • Indiana employment security division, said only 13,545 claims were filed, compared to 15.898 the week before, and 20,540 during the same week in 1965. He said that the new layoffs which did occur were small and scattered and only seven of the division’s 28 unemployment insurance offices reported any increase in claims from newly unemployed persons. The largest increase was 247 in the Indianapolis area; the smallest, three in the Michigan City area. AN EYE PROBLEM? The June Indiana State Board of Health Bulletin reports more than 302,700 school children in Indiana need some form of eye care. This statement comes from the Indiana Society for the Prevention of Blindness. Frequent blinking, nibbing of eyes, excessive squinting, or attempts to brush away blur may mean your child has an eye problem.
FARM NOTEStffSto
BY DON FRANTZ County Agricultural Agent THERE IS interest among cattle feeders in adding urea'to corn as it is being ensiled m order to increase the protein level of the silage for feed. It is being done and the results have been satisfactory. It appears to be better than adding the urea at the time the silage comes out of the silo. In tests at the University of Illinois a ton of feed was ensiled as follows, 1,500 pounds of corn silage, 16 pounds of urea, 10 pounds of feed grain limestone, five pounds of trace mineral salt and 469 pounds of ground com. When this was fed to steers they gained over two pounds a day at a cost of grain of a little over sl2 a hundred. The same ration with urea added at feeding time resulted in a cost of gain of $13.82 and the ration was the same. LEE Shrader a new staff member of the agricultural economies department at Purdue will present the cutlook data at our Agricultural Outlook meeting September 21. We have asked him to give some of the findings of the congressional investigations on the price spread between farm and retail prices. We hope he can get some of these findings. The meeting will be held at the Shrine building on the fairgrounds starting at 7:30 p.m. THE FIRST WEEK in September is about the latest harvest date for late cuttings of alfalfa if we want a good stand for next year. These plants need fall growing days to restore plant food in their roots of living through the winter. FOR THOSE interested in forestry and wood-land conservation there will be an interesting meeting on September 21. it is the dedication of a tree-farm. It is located on highway 205 a few miles south of Columbia City.

The farm is owned by David O. Holmes and is enrolled in the American Tree Farm system, a program of the Forest Industries. There will be displays starting at 11:30 with a lunch. The afternoon program will consist of comments by industry leaders and a tour of the farm. FARMERS planning to fill their silos this fall should be alert to the danger of silo gases. Purdue university extension agronomist Htftvell Wheaton and safety specialist Dick Willsey caution that these gases, dangerous to humans and animals, may develop at silo filling time and remain for a few days afterward. Being heavier than air, gases may form just above the silage, at the bottom of the silo, in the unloading chute, in the adjacent feed room or at the silo juice drain. In a recent Indiana Cooperative Extension Service publication, Wheaton and Willsey offer these tips on safety regarding gases at silo filling time: Never get into the silo at filling time without running the blower abouc 15 .minutes. Keep it running while anyone is inside. Stay out of the silo for 10 days or two weeks after filling. See a doctor at once if you feel the slightest throat irritation or start coughing. Keep children and pets away from the silo,' and Ventilate the silo room by opening outside doons-.and windows fori at least two weeks after filling. Single copies of the publication, are free to Indiana residents. They may be obtained at your County Extension office. Ask' for Mimeo S-42, “Safety Makes Sense with Silo Gases.” STATE TO RESUME PUBLICATION OF ‘OUTDOOR INDIANA’ The new “Outdoor Indiana,” to be published ten time a year, will be available to subscribers and on many Hoosier newsstands late in September. The magazine, a project of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, has been enlarged to the size of standard news magazines and is twice as large as the former “Outdoor Indiana.” Subscriptions are being taken at the Indiana Department of Natural Resources Building at the State Fair, or at the magazine’s office,

The prospectus asks: “Would you like to know more about the stirring nistory of pioneer Indiana? Would you like to know more about Indianas fast-growing system of state parks, state recreation areas, state forests, fishing and hunting sites? such as water, soil, limestone, coal, farms, wildlife, forests, oil and gas?” ‘HOMES ON WHEELS’BROCHURES FREE INDIANAPOLIS — In order to help the Department of Commerce and its Tourist Division answer thousands of requests for information on camping in Indiana in “homes on wheels” the Indiana Mobile Home Association prepared a brochure for the State to send its “customers.” Rex Cox, executive director of the association, presented the first copy to Lieutenant Governor Robert L, Rock this week. Rock, director of the Department of Commerce, says that requests tor information about camping in Indiana top the list of specific requests that come to his Tourist Division from both Hoosiers and out-of-state travelers. The brochure, entitled “Recreational Vehicle Park Guide,” lists facilities at both private parks and Indiana s state parks and recreational areas. The guide uses as its theme, the state’s slogan, “Indiana State of Surprises.” Copies are available from either the Indiana Mobile Home Association, 3738 west Michigan ’ street, Indianapolis, Indiana 46222, or from the Tourist Division, Indiana Department of Commerce, 334 State House, Indianapolis, Indiana, 46204. They are free. Copies of the brochure wall also be distributed by the Tourist Division at its. booth in the manufacturing building during the Indiana State Fair, August 30 through September 5, the Lieutenant Governor said.
